A Malaysian political coalition led Malaysia from 1957 to 2018. They used to be good, developing Malaysia while caring for people. Even after 2018 when they became opposition, they seemed okay. However, they betrayed people by cooperating with far-left populist Pakatan Harapan in 2022. This has only proven that Barisan Nasional only wants power but not principles.
Are you still supporting Barisan Nasional? I used to be, but now no more. I still remember when Barisan Nasional chose Pakatan Harapan to form the government. It was such a disgusting moment. It had only proven that Barisan Nasional is a traitor.
Do you think that Barisan Nasional is a hero? They used to be. But now? No more. They betrayed people. How dare they could cooperate with communists.
Since then, I decided to vote Perikatan Nasional, not Barisan Nasional.

A sunburn or suntan focused on the left arm. It is caused by the left side of the body being the only half that gets exposed to sunlight while driving. Presumably, it would be located on the right side of the body in countries where they drive on the left side of the road.
I had a trucker's tan after driving for 10 straight hours on a sunny day.
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
